This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Kieran Mullen,

Re: your tech solution.  Interesting point!  It would seem to require
a group that is to biotech as the black mechanics are to robotics.  The
implanting of god prepared embryos (which is the genesis for Silk, Mucor,
Tick?, and the Lynxes) must be simple compared to striping useable DNA
from non-sex cells.  Doctor Crane probably couldn't do it.  The brain
surgeon from Palustria probably couldn't do it.

But it is possible, and probably more likely than inhumi
succubi/incubi.
